Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the effectiveness of colour overlays among children with behavioural disorder who are experienced Irlen Syndrome symptoms. 20 subjects aged between 7 to 12 years old from Special Need's Class at Sekolah Kebangsaan Dato Haji Musa, Kota Samarahan, Sarawak, Malaysia involved in this study. A quasi-experimental design of pre and post-test was conducted to compare the findings between the application of blue colour overlays and without colour overlays in term of reading score and reading time. The findings through the paired samples t-test analysis found the significant differences for reading score, t (19) = 3.923, p = 0.001 and reading time t (19) = 4.081, p = 0.001. The findings indicated that there is a significant improvement in term of reading score and reading time as shown in dyslexia children, followed by ADHD and other learning disabilities with the symptoms of Irlen Syndrome while using blue colour overlays. This study had disclosed that blue colour overlays can help to increased reading comfort in children who having a behavioural disorder and experienced the symptoms of Irlen Syndrome.

色彩叠加对伊伦综合症儿童阅读成绩的影响

这项研究是为了确定颜色覆盖在经历Irlen综合征症状的行为障碍儿童中的有效性。20名年龄在7-12岁之间的受试者参与了这项研究，他们来自马来西亚砂拉越州哥打萨马拉汉Sekolah Kebangsaan Dato Haji Musa的特殊需要班。进行了测试前和测试后的准实验设计，以比较在阅读分数和阅读时间方面应用蓝色覆盖层和不使用颜色覆盖层的结果。通过配对样本t检验分析的结果发现，阅读得分t（19）=3.923，p=0.001和阅读时间t（19）=4.081，p=0.001存在显著差异。研究结果表明，阅读障碍儿童的阅读成绩和阅读时间有显著改善，其次是多动症和其他有Irlen综合征症状的学习障碍儿童，同时使用蓝色覆盖物。这项研究表明，蓝色覆盖物有助于提高患有行为障碍并出现Irlen综合征症状的儿童的阅读舒适度。
